Keep CivicPlus for your website, agendas and video. Add Govably for the minutes. Paste your CivicPlus video link and get finished minutes back, with every speaker named by VoicePrint from meeting to meeting.
Govably takes the CivicPlus recording link directly. Nothing to download, export or re-upload, and nothing changes in CivicPlus.
Copy the link to your meeting video from CivicPlus and paste it into Govably. Govably pulls the audio itself.
Govably transcribes the meeting and names each speaker. Board members it has heard before are recognized by VoicePrint.
Minutes in your house style, with every motion written out properly, and published to your public portal.
Govably identifies every speaker and keeps a VoicePrint for each board member. Confirm a board member once; at the next meeting they are already named. No re-labeling speakers every month.
Who moved, who seconded, the motion language and the vote with each board member's name: ayes, nays and abstentions, formatted the way minutes are supposed to read.
Govably writes the record in your house style, and you make your changes in a full document editor right in Govably. Nothing to export to Word to finish.
Govably places each item of business on the meeting's timeline and flags only the ones it is unsure of. You check those and move on.
Behind on minutes? Paste the link to each recorded meeting still waiting and work through the backlog in your house style.
Residents open the meeting, search the transcript and click any line to jump to that moment in the recording.
